Robert Gibbs Returns To Fox News, Calls Bin Laden A “Cowardly, Murderous Thug”

White House press secretary Robert Gibbs made his return to Fox News Sunday this morning, for the first time since the White House vs. Fox News dust-up last fall. He used his appearance to survey the political landscape, touching upon Scott Brown‘s victory and Ben Bernanke‘s confirmation, before making at least one entirely uncontroversial comment that everyone can get behind. When asked about the new Osama bin Laden audio tape, Gibbs responded, “I think everybody in this world understands that this is somebody that has to pop up in our lives over an audiotape because he’s nothing but a cowardly, murderous thug and terrorist that will- some day, hopefully soon- be brought to justice.”
